Fluoride intake in early infancy.
Abstract
Current regulations concerning nutrient content of infant formulas do not specify either a lower or an upper limit for fluoride content. There would appear to be no need to specify a lower limit. An upper limit of 0.06 mg per 100 kcal is achievable and is recommended. Intake of fluoride by the infant will be influenced more by the water used as a diluent than by the concentrated liquid or powder used in formula preparation.
